> High-performance Rust implementation of sublinear-time algorithms for solving asymmetric diagonally dominant linear systems with O(log^k n) complexity
## ๐ Quick Start
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
sublinear-time-solver = "0.1.0"
```
## ๐ Basic Usage
```rust
use sublinear_solver::{Solver, SolverMethod, Matrix, Vector};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
// Create a simple 3x3 diagonally dominant system
// 4x + y = 5
// x + 3y - z = 4
// -y + 2z = 3
let matrix = Matrix::from_dense(vec![
vec![4.0, 1.0, 0.0],
vec![1.0, 3.0, -1.0],
vec![0.0, -1.0, 2.0],
])?;
let rhs = Vector::from_slice(&[5.0, 4.0, 3.0]);
// Create solver and solve
let solver = Solver::new();
let solution = solver.solve(&matrix, &rhs, SolverMethod::ConjugateGradient)?;
println!("Solution: {:?}", solution.vector());
// Output: Solution: [1.0, 1.0, 2.0]
Ok(())
}
```
## โก High-Performance Features
### Sparse Matrix Support
```rust
use sublinear_solver::{SparseMatrix, CooMatrix};
// Efficient sparse matrix representation
let mut matrix = SparseMatrix::new(1000, 1000);
matrix.insert(0, 0, 4.0);
matrix.insert(0, 1, 1.0);
matrix.insert(1, 0, 1.0);
matrix.insert(1, 1, 3.0);
// Or use COO format for bulk construction
let coo = CooMatrix::from_triplets(
vec![0, 0, 1, 1], // row indices
vec![0, 1, 0, 1], // column indices
vec![4.0, 1.0, 1.0, 3.0], // values
1000, 1000
);
```
### Streaming Solutions
```rust
use sublinear_solver::{StreamingSolver, ConvergenceOptions};
let streaming_solver = StreamingSolver::new(ConvergenceOptions {
tolerance: 1e-8,
max_iterations: 1000,
convergence_check_interval: 10,
});
// Get intermediate results as solver converges
for step in streaming_solver.solve_stream(&matrix, &rhs, SolverMethod::Jacobi)? {
println!("Iteration {}: residual = {:.2e}", step.iteration, step.residual);
if step.iteration % 100 == 0 {
println!("Intermediate solution: {:?}", step.current_solution);
}
}
```
### Parallel Processing
```rust
use sublinear_solver::{ParallelSolver, ThreadPoolConfig};
// Enable parallel processing with custom thread pool
let parallel_solver = ParallelSolver::new(ThreadPoolConfig {
num_threads: 8,
chunk_size: 1000,
enable_simd: true,
});
let solution = parallel_solver.solve_parallel(&matrix, &rhs, SolverMethod::Hybrid)?;
```
## ๐งฎ Algorithm Selection
### Available Methods
```rust
use sublinear_solver::SolverMethod;
// Choose based on your matrix properties
let method = match matrix_properties {
// Symmetric positive definite matrices
MatrixType::SymmetricPD => SolverMethod::ConjugateGradient,
// Large sparse matrices with fast convergence needs
MatrixType::SparseLarge => SolverMethod::Neumann,
// When you only need specific solution entries
MatrixType::LocalizedSolution => SolverMethod::ForwardPush,
// Graph-like matrices (PageRank, network flow)
MatrixType::GraphBased => SolverMethod::BackwardPush,
// General case - automatically selects best method
_ => SolverMethod::Hybrid,
};
```
### Method Comparison
| `Neumann` | O(log n) | O(nnz) | Well-conditioned sparse |
| `ForwardPush` | O(1/ฮต) | O(nnz) | Localized solutions |
| `BackwardPush` | O(1/ฮต) | O(nnz) | Graph problems |
| `ConjugateGradient` | O(โn log n) | O(nnz) | Symmetric matrices |
| `Jacobi` | O(log n) | O(n) | Simple iteration |
| `GaussSeidel` | O(log n) | O(n) | Sequential updates |
| `Hybrid` | O(log n) | O(nnz) | Automatic selection |
## ๐ฏ Advanced Usage
### Custom Convergence Criteria
```rust
use sublinear_solver::{ConvergenceOptions, ResidualType};
let options = ConvergenceOptions::builder()
.tolerance(1e-10)
.max_iterations(5000)
.residual_type(ResidualType::Relative)
.convergence_history(true)
.early_stopping_patience(50)
.build();
let solution = solver.solve_with_options(&matrix, &rhs, SolverMethod::Hybrid, options)?;
// Access convergence information
println!("Converged in {} iterations", solution.iterations());
println!("Final residual: {:.2e}", solution.residual());
println!("Convergence history: {:?}", solution.convergence_history());
```
### Matrix Analysis
```rust
use sublinear_solver::analysis::{MatrixAnalyzer, ConditionEstimator};
let analyzer = MatrixAnalyzer::new(&matrix);
// Check matrix properties
println!("Is diagonally dominant: {}", analyzer.is_diagonally_dominant());
println!("Sparsity: {:.2}%", analyzer.sparsity() * 100.0);
println!("Condition number estimate: {:.2e}", analyzer.condition_estimate());
// Get recommendations
let recommendation = analyzer.recommend_method();
println!("Recommended method: {:?}", recommendation.method);
println!("Expected convergence: {} iterations", recommendation.estimated_iterations);
```
### Error Handling and Diagnostics
```rust
use sublinear_solver::{SolverError, DiagnosticInfo};
match solver.solve(&matrix, &rhs, SolverMethod::ConjugateGradient) {
Ok(solution) => {
println!("Solution: {:?}", solution.vector());
// Check solution quality
let residual = matrix.residual(&solution.vector(), &rhs);
println!("Solution residual: {:.2e}", residual);
}
Err(SolverError::ConvergenceFailure { iterations, residual, diagnostic }) => {
eprintln!("Failed to converge after {} iterations", iterations);
eprintln!("Final residual: {:.2e}", residual);
if let Some(info) = diagnostic {
eprintln!("Diagnostic: {}", info.message());
eprintln!("Suggested action: {}", info.suggestion());
}
}
Err(SolverError::InvalidMatrix { reason }) => {
eprintln!("Matrix validation failed: {}", reason);
}
Err(e) => {
eprintln!("Solver error: {}", e);
}
}
```
